Stains, Monster Trucks, and Mildewy Butter

this blog is for Jane, the only person who ever asks me when I'm posting my next blog!

so, here we go...

This is really cool. Were you at the Inaugural? Are you sure? Look for yourself here! I hope you weren't picking your nose. Boy, that photo machine sure is powerful.

Want to make a statement about Bart Police? This tee could do it.

This is very, very sad. I never knew Paco the pit, but had seen pictures of him, as he was the Paco behind Paco Collars. RIP little dude. And, to his parents...our hearts break with yours.

Peanut Butter mildew. Just writing that makes me a little pukey. Maybe I will throw away that peanut butter i have at work that I bought at the janky-ass Foods Co. across from my work. I actually bought a jar of Goober...what was I thinking?!!!

This story is just too bizarre (watch the whole video). What are the odds? And, no more Monster Truck Rallys for me, I tell you! (that won't be too much of a sacrifice).

Any dog named Stains is automatically awesome. A dog named Stains who stares at cupcakes...Hot Slut of the Week.



Disneyland is not always the happiest place on earth. (my managers, take note. Disney training can only get you so far.)

And, last but not least. The house hunting is back on. Slow and steady wins the race. We're just starting to look. Check THIS out. Cute, huh? I think we're going to go check it out.



until later. peaceoutbye.

ladies. shark birds. you know, the usual.

So, we've hit a pothole regarding the house hunt...long story...so, our dream e.bay home may have to wait for us until later this year. If you see an adorable little affordable place in a good neighborhood, don't tell us. thanks.

here's a diversion.

Let's see if you remember these fine womyns...

still hot

no longer hot

i don't remember her?!

anna nicole is that you?

and the winner of the bunch! still crazy as a loon:

here's the whole story, and as always, it's worth it to read his comments.


moving on...
This is cool.


This is not.

This is the perfect example of why men and women shouldn't be allowed to be parents. ;-) Gives "family values" a new meaning, huh?

Whoa!! Is that estrogen in your system or are you just happy to see me?

The Great White Seagull needs to find this guy and eat him.

Wow this is cute.

This is weird and wrong.

And this uncertainty makes me want to bawl.

bye.

back on the market, so to speak

SJ and I have been talking about buying a house for a while, but you know...we live in San Francisco...and you have to either: have a trust fund, have a job that pays $100,000/year (each of you), have a death wish (to move into an "affordable" area), or not care if you live in a 400 sq. foot place in a building in the Tenderloin. None of the above apply to us.

With the market how it is, we've decided that this is the year. 2009 = a house of our own. We've given up on SF, so...it looks like E.Bay here we come!

We drove around a bit last weekend, checking out neighborhoods, because really, every street has its own feel. And, we've been perusing the internets.

It's funny, when we put in the price range ($200-$400,000) we are interested in, BOY do the choices dwindle. It appears that the homes we want are about $300,000 out of our price range. Ha ha. Well, we both believe that if we really look, and have a good realtor helping us look, maybe, just maybe we can work it out.

Here are some things we've been seeing:

There are these condos with yards. $300,000 for 800 square feet, and shared walls? not so sure.

There's this adorable little house on Peralta street. Seems perfect. But, if you look at the street view of the google map...

That's what you see across the street. :-(

There's this cute place in Oakland Hill/Mills area:

But, "up and coming neighborhood" smells like "you don't want to walk around here at night" to me.

There's this really cute house, but where the hell is Gold Links Rd?

Wayyy out there.

Bummer.

There's this cool house in Berkeley.

It even has over 1000 square feet. i wonder if it has a roof?? And of course, it is almost $400,000. ouchie.

And, this looks almost hopeful.

It even has a red door!

Well, the hunt is on. Watch out, e.bay, the lesbians with pitbulls may be coming to a neighborhood near you!
